Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The event started with a welcoming session by the head of one of the divisions. Then we had a session with graduate analysts who were on the rotation programme. They shared their experiences, answered the questions, and gave some valuable advice. Then we had a quick break. Later we had a QA session with 4 experts from different divisions of the bank, 3 senior experts and 1 analyst. Then we had a session where we learned about various applications, tips for the interviews, and deadlines. We ended with a networking session with the panellists and other employees.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It gave me a better understanding of the firm, its goals, visions, commitments, and initiatives. I found it valuable to learn about different divisions of the firm and talk to the professionals from these divisions to understand what they do and decide what I would enjoy doing the most.
